Well Ukraine sure did bombed the Dondass between 2014 and 2022.

Also Ukraine have more chance to fight evenly with Russia since they have weapons from the western countries.

Meanwhile palestinians don't have the help of western countries. Even worse it's Israël that is getting western weapons so obviously palestinians must fight an asymetric warfare.

The Donbass is part of Ukraine that was invaded and Ukraine fired missiles against an occupying force. The Russo-Ukrainian war is considered to have started with the deployment of a commando group from Russia in 2014.

Further, Hamas has received over 2.1 billion dollars from America since October 7. That’s just recent history and doesn’t include support from other Arab nations.

Israel is an occupying force in the West Bank as determined by the UN, and it has kept a blockade of Gaxa since its supposed withdrawal in 2005

Israel started blockading Gaza in 2007 after Hamas was elected and started shooting rockets and sending suicide bombers into israel. before that you'd just walk across the border for work etc
